TIE RESCUE.

The rest of the story is told in a dis
patch from Victoria, b. c., printed in
the New York papers of Sunday last:
"By the cutter Rush there arrived a
sailor in Sitka who is the only survivor
Of the American whaling schooner Ma
polcon, which was wrecked in the Arc
tic two years ago. He tells q terrible
tale of suffering. Eighteen members
of the crew were on the ice for thirty
days. During thus time his seventeen
companions died from starvation and
exposure. He was picked up by some
Esquimaux and liyedamong them until
rescued by the Rush"
1t is supposed tkat Vincent, although
the dispatch does not mention his
name, finding that the Indian deermin
previously referred to was making
journey to the coast further south, CON
ceiyed the idea OF sending a message Of
some sort 10y him, in the hope that it
might ultimately reach n stray whaler
or other vessel venturing into that
lonely region. His only implement,
were a jackknife aud cedar board.
Rude as they were they conveyed
message as eloquent as an inspired pen,
and ultimately brought about his release
from an enforced exile that was more
horrible than death.
